Is this painting finished?

[Arkus]

Painting concentration has been interrupted by the corona virus pandemic. I’ve been totally focused on Covid news and now I’m not sure if I should leave this painting as it is. (He is a friend’s one eyed dog who recently passed away.)

I’m having trouble taking my eye off the ball so to speak with the virus on my mind all the time. Even knitting is hard!

Great painting - it's complete! Well done.

[Arkus in reply to xjrs]

Thanks, xjrs! I’d been working small scale for some time, so this was a challenge. I appreciate your comment.

Abolutely beautiful, looks finished to me as well

[Arkus in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Thank you Kitten-whiskers! I may be tempted to show it to the owner of the dog now. It’ll be a gift if she likes it.

[Kitten-whiskers in reply to Arkus]

It would be a treasured gift I am sure, how thoughful and so special - you are very talented

Gorgeous! The dog’s character really comes across.

[Arkus]

Thanks! He was the most laid back dog I’d ever met. He was a rescue dog and had a heart condition which made him that way. His rescue owners gave him the best last three years he could hope for. I chose that picture of him because I thought it conveyed all of these qualities.
